Limiting Software Center Access

Recommended Posts

Very new to SCCM. Have recently installed SCCM 2012 and it's working good, but still learning. One particular problem I have is the desire to limit access to the Software Center on a specific computer. Actually a server. It's a server we use for terminal access. I don't need users rebooting the server when they see that updates are available. Yet I want ever other computer in the building to have user interaction with Software Center and the decision of when to let updates install. How can I limit access for just one PC to administrators only?

So basically you want the software updates to go to the system but you dont want to show it to people logging on to the system.

 

You cant change the notification settings from CM as you releasing the updates to a collection.

 

From system end , if the users logging in are not admin on the system , you can hide the notification through a policy.

Turning off the notifications to users would definitely be a big help, though I'm unsure how to apply this through GP. But ultimately restricting their access to Software Center would be best. Becasue even if they don't get the update notification they would still be able to go to it and possibly end up restarting the system.
